Paleo Chocolate Protein Pancakes with Raspberry Ripple Coconut Cream

pancakes2
So with pancake day coming up, I thought I would give you a real pancake treat you can enjoy guilt free! You may be fed up of the typical ‘banana and egg’ 2 ingredient recipe by now, so here is something a little more exciting. This recipe is high in protein and good fats from the coconut cream, and what is even better is none of the typical sugary toppings are needed. A taste sensation all on it’s own!

Ingredients-
Pancakes
  • 20g chocolate pea protein powder
  • 1 heaped tsp cacao powder
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1 banana
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • Almond milk
  • Coconut oil for cooking
Coconut cream:
  • 3 tbsp thick coconut cream
  • Handful of fresh raspberries
  • 1 tsp honey

 

Method- 
  • Start by prepping the coconut cream. Mash together the raspberries, coconut cream and honey until almost smooth and place this into the freezer to set whilst you make the pancakes.
  • Add the banana, protein, egg, cacao powder, baking powder into your blender along with a splash of almond milk and blend until smooth. Start with a little milk and you can gradually add more until you’re left with a pourable but thick consistency.
  • Heat a tsp of coconut oil in a frying pan and pour the mixture into small pancake shapes. When they start to bubble, gently slide a spatula underneath and flip them over to cook on the other side. Repeat this for the rest of the mixture.
  • Serve with a generous dollop of your coconut cream and some fresh berries.
